CFP Special Session in INNS-WC2012: INNS Symposium on Vision and Image Processing (SoVIP2012)

Bangkok, THAILAND, Oct 3-5 2012

EXTENDED Deadline: 31st May 2012 (GMT +0800)

Vision has always played an essential role in everyday human activities. In the past, images were, today they are, and in the future they will continue to be important information carriers. Recent advances in digital imaging and computer hardware technology have led to an explosion in the use of computer vision in a variety of scientific and engineering applications. These applications often arise from the interactions between fundamental scientific research and development of new and high-standard technologies.

This symposium aims to provide an opportunity for researchers to describe scientific achievements and long-term research challenges, point to new research directions, or brave perspectives that pave the way to innovation. Subjects of interest are video and image processing, and aspects of related disciplines (such as machine learning, computer graphics, biological vision, mathematics) which illuminate the state of the art in video and image processing. Topics for contributions include, but not limited to, the following research areas:

Biometrics
Bio-medical Image
Bio-robotics
Computer Vision
Data Compression
Humanoid and Mobile Robotics
Human-Robot Interaction
Image Processing
Motion Estimation
Pattern Recognition
Robot Intelligence
Video Indexing & Retrieval
Video Surveillance


Paper Submission:

All papers must be submitted in PDF format following the instructions for authors at http://inns.sit.kmutt.ac.th/wc2012/paperSubmission.html. The maximum number of pages allowed is 12 pages. Each paper will be reviewed by at least three referees and accepted papers will be published in the proceedings of INNS-WC2012 as an Elsevier Procedia Computer Science open access volume.
